try getting a 2980G-A switch off of ebay. for 100bucks you get an 80
port 10/100 switch. sure it's EoL/EoS already but it works pretty
well.

cisco refurbished equipment will save you a lot of money. I've been
dealing with these guys:

duane and withlow

We have lots of 2950's in use ... moving to 2960's for low end
applications currently - then moving to 3560 etc from there....

You might also checkout the Express500 stuff... more basic switch and
priced right.....

Please, stay away from the Express 500 stuff if you value your time!

The technical term for the Catalyst Express line is "crap" .

As in "oh crap, the network is not working again..."
